Top Secret...Not

There’s a thin line between some of those CIA interrogation techniques and revenge killing and it looks like our spy agency crossed it more than once. In the days immediately following 9/11, the desire for revenge was palpable. I felt it, the cable news cabal felt it and Bruce Springsteen felt it in his song “Further On Up The Road.” The desire for revenge was understandable but it does not make good government policy. Sen. John McCain, the only torture expert in the United States Senate, was appalled at some of the things released in the report, saying that no good intelligence comes from torture. I wonder about the torturers. It must be a horrible memory to live with. Who were they and where are they now? And what are they doing in their retirement? And are they retired, or do they torture small animals just to keep up their chops?
